Additional Information

Proxy requests can transport many protocols including lower level TCP, UDP and higher level protocols such as QUIC or HTTP and different encryption mechanisms when chaining Proxy requests together.
A Proxy may want to reject a protocol for a variety of reasons.
For example, a Proxy may reject TCP to host foo.com, but allow UDP to host foo.com based on some policies.
Having a way to express that to clients would be ideal.

We have plans to implement this code in our proxies, and would prefer it be standardized so 3rd parties can interoperate with us.
